Recordist's notes
bees hum around a flowering acacia while red wattlebirds (anthochaera carunculata) and new holland honeyeaters (phylidonyris novaehollandiae) sing. i would have made a much longer recording of this if it wasn't for the distant traffic. thanks to rachael brennan for making this recording possible and for driving me to this location! jeremyh.bandcamp.com soundcloud.com/jeremyhegge
